A noise in the distance caught his attention. Turning and seeing what it was, Casey got a smirk on his face. He knew that he had really gotten the Wind Nation's attention if they were sending members of the Storm Riders after him. Turning the opposite direction, he took off running. While the people of the Wind nation were fast, the people of Shadow Lands were faster. This didn't mean he couldn't have some fun first. Glancing back, he saw that they were on their air bikes.

Do they actually think they can catch me? Casey thought with a laugh.

The Storm Riders were closing in faster than he was expecting. It wasn't too long before they caught up with him. Casey only smiled at the idea actually being caught, and not letting himself be caught for a change. One of the Storm Riders started to move ahead of him. Guessing her intentions, Casey waited to until she jumped off her bike and easily avoided being hit.

After landing, and missing, Amber recovered from the drop and was chasing after Casey. "You won't get away from us!" she screamed at him.

"We'll see," Casey replied.

Amber began launching wind attacks at Casey. He easily avoided each of them though. However, what Casey wasn't aware of was that Amber had order the rest of her unit to get ahead of him before she jumped. It wasn't long before they had him surrounded.

Sliding to a stop, Casey had a big smile on his face. Looking around at each of them, he started laughing and clapping.

"I must say I'm impressed. No one has ever caught before unless I let them. I have to give you guys' credit for actually catching me. No wonder you guys are the best unit of the Storm Riders."

"That's right. Now hand over everything you've taken," Amber said with her hand outstretched.

"I'd prefer to keep what I have. However I do have a gift for you," Casey said as he started rummaging through his bag. While the other members of Amber's unit were giving each other questioning looks, Amber narrowed her eyes at him.

"Here we go," Casey said as he pulled out an object about the size of a marble. He inspected it a few moments before looking at Amber and getting a mischievous smile on his face. Then he pressed it before tossing it to her saying "catch".

Amber caught the thing without really paying attention to it, her focus still on Casey.

"And just what is…." Amber started. Suddenly her body tensed and she fell to her knees. As she started breathing heavy, the other members of her unit started to worry if the thing Casey had thrown was hurting her.

"What…..What have you done to me?" Amber gasped after a few minutes.

"Me? Nothing," Casey replied, still smiling. "That little marvel in your hand, however, is something of my own design. It triggers all points of pleasure throughout the body at once."

"You bastard," Amber said through gritted teeth. "Get him!" she finally was able to say to the others.

Without hesitation, the other 4 members of her unit attacked Casey at once. However, Casey proved to be more of a match than they expected. Easily defending and evading their attacks, Casey eventually knocked each one to the ground. After throwing the last one to the ground, Casey ran over and hopped on one of their air bikes.

"Nice bike," Casey commented before taking off. Not willing to let him get away, David hopped on his bike and was after him about a second after Casey had taken off. Not paying attention to the fact that he was being chased, Casey was inspecting the various buttons and dials on the bike's display.

"Here we go," Casey said as he found what he was looking for. He flipped the switched that was labeled "radio."

"One thing I forgot to tell you about that thing you have in your hand," Amber and the remaining members of her unit heard Casey explaining. "The more you try to fight it, the more intense it grows until it overwhelms you and you give in. So it's better if you just give in and enjoy the next 5 minutes. Or is that one set to half an hour? I have so many of those things I can never remember which one are set to what."

Glancing over his shoulder and seeing that he was still being chased, Casey accelerated the bike he was riding. David accelerated to stay with him, but wasn't trying to catch him just yet.

"Catch him at all costs," Amber said to David.

"Roger," David replied.

Amber took a deep breath and closed her eyes to wait for the device to shut itself off. She didn't have to wait for too long before the device finally stopped. After she dropped it on the ground, she crushed it beneath her foot. Afterward, she and the rest of her unit jumped on the remaining bikes and sped off to catch up to David and Casey.

As the chase continued, they eventually reached the capital city of the wind nation. Casey soon started circling above the city, steadily going higher and higher. David pursued him the whole time. Seeing him turning often to stay above the city, David tried often to cut him off with no success. David launched an attack at him in frustration. To avoid the attack, Casey flipped the air bike he was riding upside-down.

"Nice shot, too bad you missed," Casey commented.

Casey suddenly noticed something fall from his bag, realizing that in escaping he forgot to reclose his bag. Casey, determined not to lose the item, let go of the air bike. Getting one of his feet under him, he pushed off from the seat of the air bike to propel himself after it.

David couldn't believe what he saw. He was able to catch the air bike Casey had ridden and keep it from flying off.

"He's jumped off the bike and is falling towards the city," David reported to Amber as he watched him fall.

As Casey fell, he kept his eyes focused on the item that was falling ahead of him. As he got closer he stretched out his hand. After he caught it, he pulled his bag around so that he could put it back in his bag. Once it was back in his bag and secure and his bag was closed, he turned his attention back to the fact that he was falling. He saw a cable that was holding one of the outer structures swaying beneath him. As he focused on it, it slowed stopped moving. As he neared it he flipped so he would land feet first on it. Because of his momentum, when he landed on the cable he started to grind down it rapidly, leaving a trail of sparks from his boots. He noticed that the cable he was on crossed many others that ran throughout the city. As he reached another cable that ran in the same general direction, he jumped to it. He continued this pattern of jumping to different cables until he landed within the city.

"Unbelievable," Amber said when she saw what happened.

"Just who is this guy?" Shawn asked.

"A thief from the Land of Shadows," Amber answered.

"What did he take anyway?" Kevin wondered.

"He has a disk that contains all information on our defenses on it, as well as an item of personal value to me," Amber said with a hint of anger. "Search the city for any sign of him. If you can, catch him and retrieve the items."

"Yes, sir," the rest said as they dispersed to look for him.
